Possible Answeryes and they will tell you if that is sufficient. Let me elaborate on this answer, if I may.You will need to consider establishing a secured credit card using your ITIN since the bank will not be able to "pull" a credit report for an ITIN user. Some banks, such as Bank of America, allows you to open an bank account - and even transfer funds to other countries using an ITIN. Therefore, as long as you have the proper Identification - such as your passport and a secondary picture ID from your country of origin - you should be able to get a bank account along with a secured credit card.You'll have to deposit some funds to start the secured credit card but after 12 months - your credit limit will increase above your savings portion. This will help you get along with the credit world.But the best way to develop credit is by paying your household bills on-time. As long as you have proof that you have paid at least 3 to 4 household bills on time for 12 months - you could even purchase a home in the USA.
Credit histories are maintained by the 3 Main credit bureaus "Transunion, Equifax and experian, your husband will need to contact them in writing after him getting an SSN card from the social security Administration, he has to contact them saying that he received an SSN card and he's no longer going to be using the ITIN number for any credit history purposes and that way he can have his credit file transfered over to the social security number he was given. All addresses are on the company's web-sites and the same thing should also be done with the IRS so they know that he won't be liable for any taxes under his old ITIN number and that he's now using a Social Number instead. hope this helps
Unfortunately, it is not possible to obtain a credit report without providing your Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). These numbers are required by credit reporting agencies to accurately identify and pull your credit history.
FICO scores are used for people with both social security numbers and individual taxpayer identification numbers. Credit is rated by the number and type of account.
To build credit with an ITIN number, start by applying for a secured credit card, which requires a cash deposit as collateral. Make timely payments on your credit card and any other loans or bills to establish a positive payment history. Additionally, consider becoming an authorized user on a family member's credit card to benefit from their good credit history. Regularly monitor your credit report to track your progress and ensure accuracy.

Undocumented immigrants can build credit by applying for an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) from the IRS, opening a secured credit card, becoming an authorized user on someone else's credit card, or taking out a credit-builder loan. These methods can help establish a credit history and improve credit scores over time.

Filers who have certain child dependents with an IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
